The Monster Dark comes with a fixed length ride height adjuster rod where as the S has adjustable and you can fit adjustable ones from other Ducatis such as a 999.
Monster as standard come with risers and flatish bars as on my S2R 800 and my 1100 Monster roadbikes, for the road they are fine but I haven't tried racing with them.

If Bradders had it front end biased for a guy of his size I would think its running quite stiff springs and stiffer damping to suit, which may be causing the lack of feel

Neil says he doesn't change anything, just Clutches, Exhausts, Injectors etc and it probably wasn't to badly setup before he got it

Yep unchanged apart from the changes. I think all of them apart from the dry clutch actually made the bike worse.
